Bottom Line

Last week saw me come so close to nailing all of my predictions (scroll to the end). Predicting both Carson to rush for more than 70-yards accurately. Predicting D.K. Metcalf to go over 100-yards receiving accurately. Even almost getting the final score correct. Missing by one point. And the incorrect winner. Still, that is really close for this amateur Nostradamus. This week’s predictions, besides the final score and winner, is Seattle’s offense scoring two touchdowns in the second half of the game. And the Seattle Seahawks defense getting their first interception of the year. Jimmy G averages 3.375 interceptions a year for his career.

Typically a glass half full guy over here. This week is really challenging to see the Seattle Seahawks ending their two-game losing streak. The defense has just been atrocious all year. While San Francisco’s quarterback Jimmy Garappolo is not that great. The lack of a Seattle pass rush may give him enough time to be able to get the ball in his playmakers’ hands. 

Add in the fact that Shanahan’s offenses can make anyone lined up at running back look like a Hall of Fame player, and the Seattle rush defense is bad. This game has all the ingredients for disaster. A theory I have is the team with the better QB ends up winning a majority of the time. While that hasn’t been the case the last two weeks, I think this week it comes to fruition. Seattle with the 24-23 victory over San Francisco.
